News

At the beginning of 2016, Microsoft presented a Road Map moving forward which laid out their plans and visions for the future of accessibility on Microsoft products. Microsoft has now published a list of things they hope to achieve in 2017.

Microsoft is taking automatic picture recognition a step further in an online demo which recognizes and describes images. According to the home page, for CaptionBot, "I can understand the content of any photograph and I'll try to describe it as well as any human."

When it comes to issues of a personal matter, blind people are often left without an accessible way to perform tasks that they may wish to remain private. Team SEER at Rice University is conducting a survey seeking input on a possible accessible urinalysis) device, a tool which can detect blood in a person's urine. The survey is estimated to take 5 minutes to complete and no compensation is provided. We've linked to it from this post.

A new app aims to alert blind and visually impaired people of oncoming traffic lights. City Lights is a free iPhone app which will vibrate three times while someone is walking when they near an intersection with a traffic light. The app currently works in San Francisco, Oakland, Chula Vista, Boston, Manchester, Montreal, Victoria and Athens and other cities are being added regularly. An Android version is also being explored. Check the link to learn more or to download the app.

Roku, makers of the most popular line of streaming media players, has added a basic Audio Guide feature in its latest update. Version 7.5 allows the user to navigate through menus, adjust settings, and load some of the many channels available, though users report that accessibility in this initial release is spotty at best.

If you voted in the 2016 election in the U.S., the National Federation of the Blind wants to hear about your experiences good or bad. This year, there are two surveys available depending on the method you used for voting. Blind and low vision voters who cast their ballot at an early voting center, local polling place on Election Day, or by absentee ballot that was received by regular mail, should complete this survey Alternatively, blind and low vision voters who used a personal computer or tablet to mark their ballot should complete the electronic ballot delivery survey Responses are due by November 29.

In what has become an annual tradition, Santa Claus has partnered with some of his elves in Baltimore to send braille letters to blind children. Parents or teachers of children under 10 can visit the Santa Letters page to request a braille letter from Santa, which will be produced by National Federation of the Blind elves in contracted braille and mailed to the child. A print version of the letter will also be included. Letters are free, and requests must be received by December 16.

Nearly 6 years after the passage of the Pedestrian Safety Enhancement Act, rules have finally been put in place to ensure that quiet cars will make noise when traveling at low speeds. Most vehicles traveling under 18.6 MPH will need to emit an audible sound, though the ruling gives automakers flexibility on what exactly that sound would be. The rules have been delayed for years which has also delayed their implementation. The new rules are set to take effect by September 1, 2019 and cost the auto industry roughly $39 million annually.

A Kickstarter campaign has been launch by Audio Game Hub which seeks to develop 5 audio games. Backers of the campaign will be permitted to choose what the 5 games would include. The choices of games range from side scrollers to boxing to casino oriented choices.

Audio Game Hub may be a familiar name to readers, as they have produced a suite of 8 audio games that were released earlier this year on the Android,iOS and Windows platforms. According to the campaign page, the 5 chosen games will be added to what has already been created. For a demonstration of what the already created app sounds like on iOS, you can check out this AppleVis podcast

At the time of writing, the campaign has raised $3018 of $4259, with 23 days left. The page also says that the project will only be funded if the previously mentioned goal is met.

This fall has been full of new software and hardware releases from Apple, Google, Microsoft, and the VFO Group. And now, Humanware has one to add to the pile. BrailleNote Touch 2.0 was released last week and delivers the features J.J. wrote about before. The only difference between what was reported, and what Humanware is advertizing is that it's being called "BrailleNote Touch 2.0" instead of Keysoft, the operating system name for all BrailleNote products prior to the Touch.

It seems like we are going to have yet another first mover advantage debate in our community. Yep, Windows versus Mac is new again. Android versus iOS was over before the war even started. Now we can add Amazon Echo versus Google Home into the fray as many out there have started to form factions on which Digital Assistant they would like to use for asking everything from How far is the Taco Bell on 3rd street? to ordering an Uber to take you to get a crunchy taco on 3rd street.

Every October, VFO, formerly Freedom Scientific, releases a major update to the JAWS for Windows screen reader. Some years include more new features than others, but this year's update has a variety of changes that may effect you. This is the first major update since the VFO acquisition of AI Squared, makers of the ZoomText magnification software. We've detailed many of the new features below.

The American Council of the Blind has announced their 2017 scholarship program. Approximately 20 scholarships ranging from $1,000 to $2,500 will be awarded to entering freshmen, undergraduate and graduate college students who are legally blind, maintain a 3.3 GPA and are involved in their school or local community. The application deadline is February 15, 2017. Check the source link on this post for more information.

Seedlings Braille Books for Children is hosting an online auction featuring a variety of items in an effort to raise $10,000 to pay for braille books for children. items range from restaurant and Amazon gift cards to themed experiences and also include a large variety of local and regional items for those in or near Michigan, their home base. The auction ends November 14.

Applications are now being accepted for the National Federation of the Blind's 2017 scholarship program. 30 students will win amounts ranging from $3,000 to $12,000, a free trip to the 2017 national convention in Orlando, and a variety of additional prizes. Those attending college in the fall of 2017 may apply. For more details or to view the application, visit the link on this post. Deadline is March 31, 2017.

September 19th seems so long ago.
Back in those halcyon days of a month and a half ago, when I knew another Apple event was on the horizon, I mused that I would have little to post other than the iPod turning 15 years old. Maybe a few articles on the new mac OS would be in order. And, if it made the street date, I'd have some things to post about iOS 10.1. Sure, there would be the 4th quarter earnings report to ponder. And I'd end the article with something funny in regards to the headphone jack.

then 2016 happened with its ability to upend everything you know and expect in a rational universe.

A new update for the BlindSquare navigation app has just been unleashed on the iOS App Store which may make some iOS 10 users happy. Version 4.04 supports the new built-in voices which are included in iOS version 10, assuming they have been downloaded. Also, the new feature list includes the ability to repeat previously spoken messages in a speech history mode and a fix to reenable the use of the map in iOS 10. The complete changelog is below.

Accessible Apps has released another free update to the Chicken Nugget Twitter client for Windows. Version 4.3 was largely necessitated by some changes from Twitter's API in how tweets are displayed. Some parts of a tweet, such as a picture or quoted tweet, no longer count in the 140 character limit, allowing for slightly longer tweets to be written in these situations. Version 4.3 accounts for this change and also includes some other improvements. You can download version 4.3 from the source link below, and look at the complete changelog after the jump.

Apple has officially released iOS version 10.1, the latest update for iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch users. This update includes several camera improvements including a portrait mode camera, improves connectivity to some Bluetooth devices, and fixes a laundry list of other issues. As for accessibility, AppleVis reports that a couple of bugs were squashed, including a showstopper for some users which displayed extraneous information on a braille display while using the Mail app. We've linked to the AppleVis post which has more details on mainstream and accessibility updates in this release. iOS 10.1 runs on any device which received the iOS 10 update.

Often, students will decide to focus on blind or visually impaired individuals when developing a new technology as a part of a school project. This survey comes from Master’s students studying Human-computer interaction at the University College London and asks about technology usages and challenges for blind and partialy sighted individuals. The survey is on a single page and is estimated to take about 15 minuts to complete. Follow the source link to take the survey.

Audio

This show has something for everyone. There is educational value as we have Pearson on board to talk about math. J.J. demos the Audio Game Hub for your amusement. Also, A Listener submitted tip, more about Google Home and then the show goes to the dogs in the Last Word". This is possibly one of the more diverse programs we've ever done in 84 episodes.

Welcome to our 2nd annual Blind Bargains Holiday Shopping Guide. This year, we've brought the deals straight to your audio feed. Sit back and relax as some of your favorite merchants, or perhaps some that are new to you, tell you about their latest products and services as well as some holiday deals. We'd like to sincerely thank all of the companies who were apart of this show. Below you'll find information about each company in the order they appear in the show.
Be sure to stay with Blind Bargains for lots of deals from Black Friday to Cyber Monday and beyond. We hope you have a safe and fulfilling Thanksgiving and we'll be back to our normal? format next week.

Home is where the Google is... no wait. Google Home is in the house? Never mind. Our resident Gadget Guy Liam is with J.J. and Joe to talk about the new Google Home. We'll also talk a bit of news, hear a tip, check in with "Sound Off" and play a few games with the Last Word".

Turkey and stuffing are right around the corner. So why not have some good comfort food for the ears as well? this episode features the second portion of our interview with the delightful Ginny Owens. Along with that, there are the usual suspects like Sound Off", the "Last Word" and J.J. with a Mac tip of all things.

Spoiler warning, as we thought, this episode is full of event talk. Jeff Bishop, who just so happened to be on the actual Microsoft Campus during the big event in NYC, gives his impressions on many of our technology topics. We also managed to fit in some news and a "Last Word" too. So grab your dongles, sit back and relax while we discuss Apple and Microsoft.

This week we have part 1 of an extended interviewwith musician Ginny Owens, news and an important update in "Sound Off". Due to the recording schedule, we won't be discussing Microsoft or Apple's recent events. Rest assured, in episode 80, we'll dive right into that for sure. Darn the tech gods and their not adhering to our calendar of events!

Peanut butter and chocolate are a perfect example of how two separate things can come together to make one awesome thing. Today, as Ricky and J.J. demonstrate, we'll show how technology and cooking can fall into that same fantastic pairing with a discussion on the Instant Pot. We also have news, "Sound Off", the "Last Word" and a tip from Joe about web mail.

Looks like the News Spirits have provided this week, as we have plenty to cover at the top of the show. The Gadget Guy drops by briefly, J.J. has a tip and we discuss some feedback in the "Sound Off". Then, speaking of spirits, be sure to hear how they also influenced the "Last Word".

The Google fall event did bring us the new hardware we wanted. Or did it? J.J. and Joe talk all manner of G things in our Discussion Topic. We also have a quick bit of news, "Sound Off" and a tip of course. Additionally, we may have the most disturbing "Last Word" ... perhaps ever.

We've hit the lull between tech giant events. We'll attempt to fill that void by asking Patrick a whole lot of questions about his new iPhone. There is some news, "Sound Off', "Last Word" and a special tip from Shelly Brizbin too. But we're killing time this week until we unleash our thoughts upon the Googleplex event coverage in episode 76. Our poor, poor wallets!

Our devices aren't bricked by iOS 10. So we are left to our own devices to bring you this week's news and an interesting viewpoint in our Discussion Topic. We also have the returns of the "Last Word" and "Sound Off". Plus, as he promised, Scott has an iOS 10 tip.

The big event happened and there are opinions aplenty about it on the web. But let us add four more to the cacophony as J.J., Joe, Scott and Patrick weigh in on the controversy in an iPhone Plus-sized Discussion-filled episode.

It was bound to happen really. With the Apple event so close, the well of news dried up for this episode. We'll cover the news, what there is of it, but we called in the crew to provide us some feature content to go along with our tip and "Last Word". It's a darn good thing we have Patrick and Ricky around to help us in these dark times of a barren news cycle.

J.J. and Joe are back, and better than ever, with a week's worth of news. Plus, Scott is on board to talk about the Amazon Echo and voice remote. Sound Off, a tip and the "Last Word" round out this episode. So sit back and relax as the BBQ Crew prepares for takeoff down the podcast runway.

We're back from vacation. No really we are, with lots of news to catch up on from all that time away. J.J., Joe and Patrick might be a little rusty this week. However, that just allowed for some very interesting conversations in our Discussion Topic. Even with all this news, we managed to still find a way to fit in "Sound Off" and the "Last Word". And perhaps the first time we've ad-libbed a tip in the middle of a program.

We get a ton of listener feedback and show suggestions in from social media and from, of course, feedback@blindbargains.com One of those ideas for a show involved a summary of our previous tips all rolled up and placed inside an episode of its very own. With J.J. traveling, Patrick on vacation and Joe about to be doing some traveling of his own, this seemed like the perfect time to act on this concept.

In this episode you will hear previous tips, along with a few new ones, from the BBQ Crew. Here are some of the links to the episodes where these tips originally resided.

Andy and Jim take this group on a tour of some of their favorite tips when working from the road on a HIMS Braille Display or from a Braille Sense notetaker. Listen to hear how you can stay connected to the world via Wi-Fi or mobile hotspot. Or Bluetooth, as you can pair your Braille device to a Blaze ET for even more portable access.

This show has everything Ride Hailing Apps, OCR, Notetakers, Braille Displays, a Tip, Sound Off and even a Last Word . Listen as Jeff Bishop,Byron Lee and Jeff Thompson from Blind Abilities join J.J. for this look at what was hot or not from the 2016 Summer Conventions.

Hey all,
I have available a Braille Sense U2 BT in excellent condition. It's been lightly used, and aside from some very slight wear on a corner of its case, it's in perfect working order. I'm asking $2000 for this device, which is just a little over a third of its original price. Shipping is on me. US buyers only, please. In case of financial difficulties, I am open to negotiating a reasonable monthly payment plan. Keep in mind, however, that I would require that one thousand dollars be paid up front before plan can begin.
In case of questions, or if interested in buying this unit, please email me at
berberi.albano66@gmail.com
Kind regards,
Albano Berberi.

I have several tech items available. First up is an iPhone 6S. This is the 64Gb model in space gray, and is in excellent condition. It is running the latest version of iOS. Can send it with Voiceover enabled so you can use it right out of the box. Phone is currently locked to T-Mobile. Will ship phone in original box with original accessories. Also, I have a matt film screen protector on it, but can remove it upon request. Finally, I will include an Urban Armor Gear case that will protect the phone superbly from most falls and bumps. Trust me, this baby's been through some moments, and has come out unscathed each and every time. Asking $600, but can accept other offers.
Next is an iPod Touch 5th generation. This black iPod is the 32Gb model, and is also in great condition. It is running the latest software available before iOS 10. Includes a matt film screen protector (again, I can remove upon request,) along with a couple of cases, one of which being a brand new Otterbox Defender. iPod will ship in original box as well. I'm asking $200, but feel free to make a reasonable offer.
Third is a Jambox speaker by Jawbone. Works great and sounds great, whether connected via Bluetooth of lined in with an Aux cable.. Comes in original box with charger, USB cable, and Aux cable. Asking $60.
Next, I've got an HDMI switch, which is perfect if you want to connect a bunch of things, but your TV only has 1 or 2 HDMI ports. Simply connect an HDMI cable between your TV and the hub, and then connect up to 3 devices into the other HDMI ports. Tune to the HDMI channel connected to the hub, and switch around between the devices you want to use with the included remote. If you're tired of plugging and unplugging devices because you don't have enough ports, this is for you. You'll get the HDMI switch, power cord, remote, and I'll throw in an HDMI cable. Asking $30.
Lastly, just a couple blindness items. I have a Colorino color identifier from APH, and the 1st generation iBill that I would like to send to a new home, as I have little use for them anymore, and they are well taken care of. They'll come protected in their own cases, along with fresh batteries, so you can start using them right away. I can see these working out for older people, non-smart phone folks, or newly blind individuals. Would make great Christmas gifts. Asking $150 for the Colorino, and $65 for the iBill.
I only accept PayPal as payment. All prices are negotiable. Prices do not include shipping, but if you buy some or all items at once, I can ship them out for free. Please email me with any questions. Thanks for looking.

I have an ActiveBraille for sale for 1800 dollars. This display really is quite the technical marvel; it has notetaker-like functionality, a few games for when you have to wait a long time and contains the ATC technology that detects where your finger is reading, so it can for example scroll to the next line when your finger reaches the end of the line.
It reads epubs and pdfs without isue and works with all popular screenreading options.
It would be easiest if shipping can be arranged some time between the 5th and the 16th, since that's when I will be in the US where I am guessing you, dear reader, are from.

This is an interpoint embosser from Enabling Technologies. Prints on paper of varying sizes up to 11.5 inches wide, either tractor feed or single sheets. Connects to PC using parallel, USB or eathernet ports. Access to menus through ET Speaks. Includes manufacturer-approved packing material, USB plug and braille documentation. This embosser needs repair as some of the dots on the back pages don't print. Has been returned for repairs twice with the same issue within the past 6 years. I do not want to pay for further repairs. May be ideal for someone who doesn't mind 1-sided printing.

Up for sale is a very gently used Brailliant BI 32 braille display. I bought this Bad boy about a month ago, but I just don't use it as much as I thought I would. Ships in original box with all documentation and charger. Executive leather carrying case also included. Please email me or tweet if interested. Thank you, and happy holidays! :-)

Hello. I'm looking to sell a 20 cell pacmate braille display for $200. It works perfectly. It has no case or cable. This price includes shipping. I just no longer have a use for it. The preferred method is paypal. Thank you very much.

I have several items to sell, and the title is somewhat self-explanatory, but I'll give some more details and clarify a few things:
The 64GB iPhone 5 is unlocked, in like new condition, and comes with the original box and a certified charger. It was replaced in early 2015, but hasn't been used much since early 2016 so still holds a charge extremely well. It will ship with the latest version of iOS10 as of the shipping date.
$225 or best offer (includes shipping to North America or up to $20).
The Victor Reader Stratus is a desktop book reader from Humanware. It accepts SD cards, USB media such as a flash drive, or a CD. This is the Stratus model 4M, a simplified version with four arrows in place of the keypad. It still has a full menu system and much of the same basic functionality is there, but it has fewer buttons and is intended for less technically inclined users who just want a book reader that works. It supports common audio file formats, daisy, and many other ebook types. Text files are read using Acapella voices (Heather and Ryan for US English). If no daisy navigation is available, the unit allows you to navigate by folder, which is useful when looking through a collection of files on an SD card, for instance. It also keeps track of individual listening positions in all files. The speaker on it is quite good, and even music listening is a pleasant experience.
For this, I will accept cash offers, but will also accept offers of a portable reading device that reads e-text and audio files. This doesn't have to be a specialized device either: Android phones and iPod touches make great book readers, and if you have one lying around in good condition and it isn't stuck on a 3 year old version of the operating system, I'll trade for it.
The Wireless Hotspot is manufactured by Sierra Wireless. It's about the size of a flip phone (if said phone were closed), and accepts a sim card. Using cell towers and the data plan on that sim card, it provides internet over WiFi, similar to the personal hotspot feature on some smartphones. It has a very accessible web interface, and distinct sound queues for everything you might want to know about, including power on and power off. It can also act as a wireless micro SD card reader.
$120 or best offer (including shipping to North America).
The Asus 1015PX netbook has an 11 inch screen, a 1.66 ghz duol core processor, 250gb of hard drive space, and an upgraded 2gb of ram. It will come with either Windows 7 starter or Windows 10, depending on preference. I'll also include a screen reader which can come up automatically at startup. As far as I know, the battery is rated for five hours but easily lasts longer than that, even on high performance mode. It's not a gaming or media editing machine, but it makes a good word processor and web browser.
$120 or best offer (does not include shipping).

I have a Total Gym Fit exercise machine for sale. This machine has only been used 3 times and is in like new condition. This machine comes with all the accessories including the Ab Cruncher add on. I paid $1500 for this machine and I am asking $1200 or Best Offer. Once payment is received via either PayPal or Square Cash I will ship it to you from UPS.

I pod touch 5th generation great condition with head phones 120.
You can purchase these items separately, or get them in a bundle for $420.. Shipping included within the US Canada outside can be discussed.
These items will be sold on a first-come first serve basis as it is imperative that I get them sold quickly.

Selling a couple of items.
1. Motorola Surfboard 6141 Docsis 3.0 modem. Works perfectly fine. The only reason I’m selling it is that I recently upgraded to a 6190 a couple of months ago. The 6141 is a solid workhorse that never gave me a day’s trouble. I used it with TWC, but can be used with other cable providers. Be sure about compatibility though. Won’t work with Direct TV for example. Haven’t paid a monthly rental fee in over five years. This would pay for itself in less than seven months. Included is an AC wall charger and cat6 cable.
Asking $38.00 which would include shipping.
2. GSM unlocked in excellent condition space gray iPhone 5S 64 GB. The phone has a tempered glass screen protector installed. No scratches, stuffs or cracks. Will come in its original box and with all unused accessories and can throw in a couple of in very good condition cases. The wife used this device on T-Mobile, but as it’s unlocked, it can be used on any carrier supporting the GSM network.
Asking $295.00 free priority mail shipping included.
I take PayPal or cash if you’re local (zip 92336) and can pick up.
Can provide photos as well.

This Juliet Pro is a few years old in original box. It was taken out of box for about 1 week with about 3 uses. It is in excellent condition and I have never found a use for it since so decided to sell. I will consider any reasonable offers.

I have several items for sale today. 1. Bradley watch limited edition black titanium with polished silver hour and minute markers. Comes with a nice metal mesh black bracelet band. This is the watch made for the blind that uses ball bearings to tell time. Comes in original box and includes all original paperwork. Like new condition. Asking $275 or best offer. 2. Original silver titanium Bradley watch with titanium bracelet band and extra beige leather and canvas band. No box or paperwork. Also, like new condition. asking $250 or best offer. 3. Sharp talking time one model 660. This is the rare first ever talking clock and is in mint condition with original lanyard and looks and works perfect. This clock was released in 1979 and still runs like the day it was purchased. Asking $275 obo. 4. Sharp EL-640 talking calculator. this is the rare and sought after model that includes alarm, timer, hourly chime, calendar, etc. Good condition physical and works perfect. Asking $125 obo. 5. Louis Braille 2009 limited edition silver dollars brand new in box and capsulated. Asking $45. 6. Two Beatles CD box sets. Both are in like new condition and come in collector's boxes with collector's booklets. One set is the 17 disk set that includes 16 music CD's and 1 DVD. This was the digitally remastered set from 2009 where all Beatles songs where converted to stereo. The second set is a 13 disk set and is also in a collector's box with collector's booklets. This set also was digitally remastered in 2009 but this was all of the Beatles albums that were recorded in mono and are kept in mono. That is whwy there are a few less disks because there were three albums that the Beatles recorded in stereo originally. For a Beatles purist, this is hte set for you as the music is in mono like the Beatles intended for you to hear it. Asking $125 a set. 7. Teen years 10 disk CD box set that includes all of the best music from the 50's and 60's. This is malt shop or sock hop type oldies. Like new in box. Asking $75 obo. 8.

These two accessible board games were bought to play with my son who never quite got interested in either of them. Purchased through Maxi Aids for $80.00 per game, I do not believe this is a fair asking price. Cover of Monopoly box looks good, Scrabble box has some very minor water damage on it. All pieces are included and good to go and in good shape.
I am asking $85 for the games as a bundle. This price includes shipping.

I have for sale an I.D. Mate Quest, the second-newest model of I.D. Mate bar code scanners from En-Vision America. It's in good working condition and comes with its pouch, carrying strap, charger, a mini USB cable, and some bar code labels. I'm asking $450 for this unit. Thanks!
